Witch 101: Cleansing Bath: White Bath

It’s a good idea to clear out negative energies routinely, (the strongest time is at the New Moon) in addition to doing so after encountering negative experiences/people/spirits and before and after undertaking magic, rituals or spirit communication.

Altars should be kept clean, (ideally clean them once a week) and can be re-arranged/decorated for magical workings and holidays, (Pagan holidays related to the altar, Saints day’s for Saints altars etc).

Clear crystals after magical workings and once a month (in the day) at the new Moon in addition to charging them in solar or lunar energy for various purposes. You can do the same with tarot decks and other divination tools.

Here is my favorite cleansing bath:

WHITE BATH

One of the most powerful cleansings around. Helps everything from clearing negative energy to ridding yourself of spirits and black magic.

1/2 c salt
1/4 c cascarilla (or one cup pressed cascarilla)
3 c milk (can substitute coconut but whole milk is best)
1 can coconut milk + 1/2 the oil (if your can has oil at the top)
1 box or bottle coconut water
Fresh white flowers or petals
1/3 bottle florida water

3 of the following:

Frankencense resin
White copal resin
Chamomile (calming)
Mullien (calming)
Queen Anne’s Lace (love)
Jasmine (love)

Or other white herbs/flowers as available and as suits the energy you’re trying to cleanse. Placing clear quartz crystals around the bathtub amplifies the effect of the bath.

INCENSE

Burn a cleansing incense in the bathroom, (Sage, Copal, Palo Santo, Benzoin, Frankencinse).

PSALMS/PRAYERS

For maximum effect, ring a bell or play a singing bowl to clear energies, (if you don’t have a bell and don’t want to use your phone around water you can also clap loudly 3x),  then read Psalm 68 over bath water.

In the bath, recite the Lord’s Prayer, Hail Mary and one of the Psalms listed here that apply to your situation while in the bath:   http://readersandrootworkers.org/wiki/Category:The_Book_of_Psalms.

Make sure you fully immerse in the water or pour it over your head at least 3x.

Stay in the water until it cools and as it goes down the drain, visualizing the situation or things you want to clear going down the drain with the water.

CANDLES

Place 2 white candles, (or St. Michael or Guardian Angel candles) alongside the bathtub, making a gateway to step through getting in and out. You can also add oils to amplify cleansing (Frankincense, Fiery Wall of Protection, Jinx Remover, Uncrossing) or to attract positive spirits, (Gardenia) to the candles.

AFTER BATH

Ideally toss the petals/herbs from the bath in water running away from you, bury them at a crossroads or throw them on a railroad track. If doing this isn’t possible, throw them away outside of your house.

EGG CLEANSING

You can follow the white bath with a simple egg cleansing by rolling the egg (always downward) from head to toe, scrubbing yourself as though it were a bar of soap. Crack the egg into a bowl of water, let sit about 5 min then flush.
